Not sure. It was a bulb someone gave me a couple of years ago. I planted it and it comes back every year just as pretty as ever.

Do either of you know this one? It is salmon colored, great big flowers, and I got it at Walmart about 10 years ago. I did not keep the name and have not been able to find out since. The picture does not do it justice.

Say that 3 times real fast, a tongue twister for sure.
Yes, it is goodsized and is making a couple small bulbs that I need to space further out, I guess. For years I kept my bulbs in 6 inch pots, but last year I filled 10 inch pots with multiple bulbs and enjoyed the display of several stalks in bloom at once. Too bad they only bloom for a short while. Wish I could grow them in the ground here instead of carrying the bulbs over winter inside.
